I am 13/f and I play soccer and do drill team (dance) at school! I am very outgoing and energetic and I am a very good student. I earn my own money by babysitting and then go on a shopping spree and I can tell you right now I have fun no matter what I'm doing! EVEN HOMEWORK! I go through the problems everyone goes through with friends, school, parents, and sibblings, fashion, and decorating and everything else you can think of although I haven't had a boyfriend but I know what boys want because most of my friends are boys so if you want a boy to answer I'll just ask my friends and get right back to you. (I have a lot of friends that are girls too so any friendship problems are GREAT too)!!!
So drop a question in my box when you are panicing about any little or big problem and I will give you a fast honest answer!

how do i do my eye like that !?!?!??! i want smokey smally eyesy!
Well you need an angle eyeshadow brush that is pretty thin. THen you get a dark gray, NOT A BLACK, eyeshadow and make a small layer under the eye and a thicker layer on the eyelid. Don't make it too thick because then it will look bad. Don't make it past the crease of the eyelid but half way instead. I hope this helped. Tell your friends that if they have a question I can help.
im soo bored w. my clothes but everytime i go to a store i usually end up getting different things that dont go together as an outfit. so yeahh if anyone has some cute ideas for outfits from like abercrombie or hollister.. or any other stores then give me the links. thanks :)
www.wikihow.com/Coordinate-Your-Outfit
This may help you coordinate outfits better but let me give you some advice, (hint the name advice-girl-28, lol)layering clothes with colors that look good together is a great idea. For example, today I wore two camis (one white and one red) and a navy jacket over. Even though the colors are different it looked really good. Layering with colors that look really good together is the best outfit you could wear your clothes!
Ask me anything!!!!!!!
please! i really need help/ answer for this problem- its for extra credit and i really need it. please somebody i have no clue!
Little Red Riding Hood was taking a basket of walnuts to her granny. Along came the wolf and demanded half of the nuts. But luckily Red found another nut along the road. Then the wolf returned and took half the nuts she had. A kindly squirrel gave her two more. When the wolf returned the last time, he settled for only one fourth of her nuts. Red made it to her granny's with 15 nuts. How many did she start with?
It depends. I was confused. When you said the worf demmanded half the nuts and then returned and took half the nuts does that mean that he took half the nuts two times. or just once.
If two times then 70 nuts
If one time then 35 nuts

OK i need all of your opinions! i have to write a story, and i'm deciding between two plots. I need as many opinions as possible please! thanks
1. about a girl, 15 or so, her mother died when she was very young, over the summer she is in a store and meets a woman in her 30's, 40's, the woman tells her about a place up the mountain where she is landscaping this whole big beautiful garden like thing. The woman offers to teach her to garden in return for the girl helping out. they start to do that and become friend. All the while the younger girl is kind of seeing this woman as a mother figure even though the woman isn't doing anything motherly, they're just friends. In the end, she puts too much trust in the woman, and is disapointed because the woman like goes away without telling her or something else bad that she knows a "mother" wouldn't do. And it's basically about that, just how when people want something so badly they see things that aren't really there. She wanted a motherly so desperately that she clung to anyone and was let down.
2. a girl in ny city, her mother dies and she finds an adress of a family member(she doesn't know any of her relatives) they live down south so she goes there to find them. She finds out that her "mother" is actually her aunt her took her away when her mother went crazy. So it's about her learning about the south and meeting family and getting to know her mom.
which should i do? i'm better at descriptions than big exciting course of events. which one is more original and crative, and what should i do? does the first one seem like boring, like it's been done before and is too disney, cliche, boring?
PLEASE HELP ME DECIDE
I really want it to be well written
I love both ideas but I think that the first one is the most creative and easier to follow. Even if everyone says the second one you will have a great story. heck, over time you could write both!

i really need advice. do you know how to lose weight? especially in my stomach and thighs. whenever i walk my feet are always touching and whenever i sit down, my thighs look like flatout pancakes. are there any tips? i know doing situps or crunches are good, but i seem to not do it coz of my laziness. [lol] im serious i get tired after doing about 20 situps then i stop. are there any food i shud avoid to lose weight? ive heard that if you lose weight and start eating whatever again, youll gain fat back. and that scares me. i wanna be fit and healthy for the rest of my life. pls give advice! and thanks in advance! =]
Well, I'm not educated about this subject so I looked up a website that my friend told me about. She used to be overweight and she really wanted to lose weight, so she looked up teen weight loss techniques and found this helpful website:

does anyone know where to get cheap conair &revlon straighteners that work really good??? and can u please send me pictures of them so i know what your talking about? thanks in advance
First thing I have to say is thank you for picking me to ask. I don't have curly hair but I do have wavy hair. Last month I got the wet to dry straightener by Remington. It doens't damage your hair as much as normal straighteners. It was in my price range and I hope it is in yours. I might have a different budget or opinion on things so if this doesn't work out I'll find something for you. Below is the Remington's wet to straight website and you will find a lot of information. Thank you, good luck!

how will i get my mum to let me go to a theatre school?
Simply research where you want to go and find out costs, time, place, and other things about the theatre school and then find a way to persuade your mom. Put together a presentation to convice her that it is a good decision. I hope it helped. If another question arises please send me the question and i'll help you out.

whenever my 2 friends do something without me, the one girl mel makes a huge deal out of it. i think she is trying tomake me feel left out. shold i just brush it off?
Whatever you do don't try to disclude her. If you do that she has more of a reason to disclude you. Also, don't let her know that it bothers you and try to feel like one of them. It might be hard but this problem will gradually get better. Now, if it doesn't try telling them how you feel because if you let it go completely you might regret it and then it is too late. You know, we all only have one life to spend, so spend it WISELY!!!
Good Luck

i heard that you shouldn't go to bed with wet hair..
how come?
The only reason you shouldn't go to bed with your hair wet is because when you toss and turn at night your hair starts to dry how it is lying. So if it is messed up it will dry that way and it won't be smooth and straight in the morning. I hope that answered your question.

i want to be more socail,confident,and happy. how can i make more friends,and be happy with my self?i want people to want to talk to me, if that makes sence. i feel like im invisible. i just want to be noticed and be more in my circle of friends. how ?
I just want to start out saying that this isn't a rare problem. I went through it last year. What I did that really seemed to work was I just made others feel invited into my conversations. Then soon enough they will start inviting you into their groups or conversations. Just watch out that you don't stereotype by passing right by people who are labeled weird or mean. You decide and you can get yourself out of any situation you get yourself into. I hope I helped and good luck!

I have a huge crush and he doesnt feel the same but I really want to be closer friends anyway. He doesnt like going places where he's the only guy so it has to be a group thing. What do you think we should do? I always thought of me having a holiday party and having a sevcret santa and "secretly" giving him me.He also loves the jets so I thought a couple of friends and I could go to the game. I really want something fun that can show him that i'm a fun, cute, sweet girl. Any suggestions? Movies, Jet Game, ANYTHING? Also tips on how to act when we're together so I'm not annoying but I'm cute...
Well it does depend on the kind of guy he is. You could go bowling and show him how talented and fun you are. All of your ideas were good too. A Jet game would show him that you are interested in the same kinds of sports and so he could talk to you about that. Well talk not a lot but try to be kinda flirty/joking but sometimes act like your one of the guys and try to feel really comfortable. I hope I helped. Any other questions or results you get please contact me. I would love to see how it works out!
Good Luck

heyy okay so i really need someones opinion on this .. i really want to get bangs but i'm not sure if they would look bad on me or not .. here's a picture of me: http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2414912860097533098dVGkQd
i'm the one of the left. what do you think?
I think that getting bangs is a really good idea. You would look cute with side bangs if you part your hair to the side. Don't get them shorter than the bottom of your nose and maybe have a slant. I hope I helped!
Good Luck

k i have been wearin flip flops bout 3 monthes now and i have these tan lines on my feet
i dont want my feet to get darker i want them to change back to the regular color
--dont say use self tanner bcuz i dont want it to get darker i want it to be my regular skin tone plz help
That happens to me all the time. To get rid of it simply STOP wearing flip flops. Try wearing tennis shoes for a while and see if it helps. other than that it might take a while to go away if it is more serious. Don't worry, it won't stay forever.

Why is the skin on our faces generally oiler than the skin we have everywhere else?
Well our fingers have a lot of oil and when we touch our face our face becomes oily. I know that is probably a common answer but that is very logical.

ok, let's just say i'm a trouble-maker... but only when i'm hanging out w/ friends. i mean, i never lie to my mom or anybody else but when i'm around my friends i do. and when i'm around my friends i swear and do all kinds of stuff. i don't want to stop hanging out w/ them because i've known them FOREVER but how can i start staying out of troulbe when i'm around them? please help. THX
I know this will be hard. But you have to stop doing those things and act like you would when you are not with your friends. Then when they see you like this and ask you why you are acting like this then tell them how it makes you feel and if they understand then they won't put as much pressure on you to do those things. If they don't understand then make a compromise and do that stuff sometimes when you are with them but nothing that you will always regret. Remember you are the only one you ever have to please!
Good Luck!
